Dishonest politicians aim to divide US, But we Remain united:
Wyoming Stands for freedom
We Will Defend our constitutional right to make personal healthcare decisions
Who We Are
Wyoming United for Freedom is a non-profit 501(c)(4) organization dedicated to protecting and expanding reproductive rights in Wyoming. We emerged in response to the overwhelming demand for a proactive, organized movement to defend our constitutional freedoms against legislative overreach.
As a 501(c)(4) organization, Wyoming United is uniquely positioned to engage directly in political campaigns and advocacy efforts, amplifying our impact on elections and legislative processes.
Our Vision
A Wyoming where everyone has the autonomy to make personal healthcare decisions without government intrusion, a vision shared by the majority of our voters. Regardless of personal beliefs on abortion, we trust and respect the hardworking people of Wyoming and honor their right to govern their own bodies. Complex healthcare decisions belong solely to the pregnant individual and often in conversation with their families, trusted doctors, and clergy if they choose,— but never politicians.
Our Plan
We are building a statewide coalition of volunteers and activists to safeguard our rights through effective communication, strategic organization, and direct electoral involvement. Our goal is to ensure that reproductive freedoms are not only defended but also strengthened in Wyoming for generations to come.
